There was a young boy outside watching on the television showing the XXX Local Master's Chess Competition. He was only 6 year old but looking at his eye, it's like a shining emerald gem. He was amazed how the participants move the pieces and how they press the chess clocks.
On that day, he smiled then suddenly shouted "I will become the World Super Grand Duper Hyper Grandmaster in the world universe!"

" Hey kid, do you even know how to play with chess?"
"Ye---, ye--, No uncle but I will learn how to play." The young boy replied.
Everyone laugh at him again. The young boy was ashamed that he ran so fast that he bumped into an Old man.

"What's your name kid?"
"My name is Chesster uncle." the young boy replied.
The old guy took something inside the bag and gave it to Chesster and said,
"Chesster, accept this as my apology for bumping into you and I want you to return this to me when the time comes."
The Old man smiled and bid his farewell to Chesster and didn't wait for his reply. He continued walking going to his car. Chesster was dumbfounded to what happen a while ago, he suddenly realized the thing he's holding was shining.
He was confused why the old man gave him when he remembered that the thing he's holding was the same with the pieces he saw in the television a while ago but at the same time it is different.
But he didn't mind it then said to himself, "This is the sign! I want to learn chess! I'll ask father to teach me when I got home."
Chesster got home and showed the thing to his father and asked, "Father, what is this thing?"
Suddenly his father was shocked and told, "I told you to never stole to anyone, where did you get that?"
Chesster explained to his father what happened then said, "The Old man gave this thing to me and he said that I will give it back to him when the time comes."
His father have recovered from his shocked then said, "Never show this to anyone . Keep this as a secret for you and me only, you understood?"
Chesster agreed and promised to his father that he won't show and tell to anyone about the thing he got from the Old man. He put the thing in his room and keep it safety like his life depends on it.
At the car, The driver of the Old man asked, "Master, I would like to ask why did you gave one of your piece to that kid?"
The Oldman replied "When I looked at his eye, he reminded me of a friend. they have the same look."
The driver didn't ask anymore and he just continued driving. The old man talked to himself,
"Is he really your son? How long has it been my friend. When do you plan to comeback?"
When he looked at the young boy's eyes he remembered someone who help him stand as he is right now.
